Zusammenfassung:A series of 5-aryl-2,3-dihydro-5H-imidazo[2,1-a]isoindol-5-ols (IV), prepared by the LiA1H4 reduction of the corresponding 9b-aryl-1,2,3,9b-tetrahydro-5H-imidazo[2,1-a]isoindol-5-ones (II), was evaluated for suppression of food consumption in rats. One member of this series, 5-p-chlorophenyl-2,3-dihydro-5H-imidazo[2,1-a]isoindol-5-ol (6, mazindol), was evaluated in squirrel and capuchin monkeys and found to have anorexic activity approximately equal to d-amphetamine.
